How scores work
- Relative score
- 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.
By owner reviews
64/100From 10 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.
What owners like and dislike

The Continental CrossContact H/T receives a generally positive response from users who praise its low road noise, fuel efficiency, and comfortable ride quality compared to factory alternatives. However, sentiment is somewhat mixed due to a notable segment of reviewers reporting issues with wet traction, stiffness, or high-speed vibrations.
Pros
- Exceptionally low road noise and quiet operation
- Improved fuel efficiency
- High comfort and smooth bump absorption on rough roads
- Good overall dry and wet road grip for most daily driving conditions
Cons
- Inconsistent wet weather performance and sliding reported by some users
- Stiff ride quality and harshness over road imperfections for certain drivers
- High-speed vibrations and balancing challenges
- Poor cornering and hard sidewalls noted in isolated reviews
Worth knowing
- Users fitting the 215/70R16 size on crossovers noted a quiet ride and improved fuel economy compared to previous Michelin tires.
- Lexus NX owners experienced significantly better bump absorption and less passenger complaints regarding noise compared to stiff factory Yokohama tires.
